What is a Standard: A standard is a document approved by a recognized body that provides for common and repeated use, rules and guidelines for products or related processes and production methods.
What is a protocol: The Internet Protocol is a set of rules for sending information between computers on the Internet. Each computer that uses the Internet Protocol has at least one IP address that identifies it to all other devices on the planet, just like a person might have a postal address. http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Protocol
Why do we need Standards and protocols: Standards provide the medium, rules and protocols to share information. The use of standards will enable interoperability of your system and information with other systems and data.
Integrating data is not an easy process, however when a standard is applied beforehand, it makes it that much simpler to share data, and be a part of a more global community. Thus we need to know what types of standards are available.
every company must follow the guidelines of the data protection act of 1998 in order to be approved by the organization:
Standards and protocols are technical rules and conventions that enable compatibility and therefore facilitate communication or interoperability between different IT systems and their components. They might govern the design and use of hardware, software and information. For example, the communication protocols used on the internet, the ASCII representations for characters, or the design of the printer port on a personal computer are all governed by standards.
